Ending the Master Cleanse

Depending on how long you follow this diet it is important to end the lemonade diet properly. This is so your digestive system can get used to solid food again.

The general rule is after completing the lemonade diet, drink nothing but raw fruit juices for the first 24 hours. On the second day, drink nothing but raw vegetable juice for that day. After that you can ease into solid food by eating fresh fruits and vegetables. Follow that with easy things to eat, like soups and salads. If you dive into cooked food after spending ten to 14 days on this fast you will probably become ill.

How hungry you are on this diet seems to vary from person to person. Some people say that they are hungry, only for the first few days or so and then they are fine. Other people seem to stay hungry. Some people have reported starting the diet, intending to stay on it only for 10 days but feel so good that they stay on the diet for as long as 40 days.
